CPSC Hosst Briefing and Webinar for Media On National Minority Outreach Campaign

In an effort to reach media that targets hard-to-reach minority populations, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) hosted a "pen & pad’ briefing at their headquarters in Bethesda, Md.

CPSC is aware of disparities in minority death and injury statistics associated with consumer products. CPSC has launched a minority outreach initiative targeting Hispanic, African-American, Native American and Asian populations with vital safety information.

Attendees were greeted by Chairman Inez Tenenbaum and heard a brief presentation on planned activities. Attendees were able to ask questions and network with CPSCs team leading this initiative.
